Two sommeliers work the dining room at all times, and wine service is exceptional; a world-class list with strong selections from just about every wine-producing region. The eclectic flavors of Wood's cuisine make the traditional Chardonnay and Cabernet choices seem a little thin, so it's wise to focus on the Alsatian whites, red Burgundies and New World offerings.
The summer associates from the big Midtown law firms rule this room come early evening, whereas the second seating consists primarily of the usual four-star-dining suspects. - A.J.

4 Reader Reviews | We were happy to get a rare summerlicious reservation to Centro but couldn't have been more disappointed. The service was terrible - it took our waiter 30 minutes to take our drink order, we were never offered pepper or cheese, no one ever stopped by our table to ask how our meal was - and the food was mediocre at best. The room is big and loud and not conducive to an intimate night out. Overall we were very disappointed and don't know what the big deal is about this restaurant. If you want a great meal try Celestin instead.

We went to the restaurant during the Winterliciuos festvial because they had advertised beef on the menu on their website. We love beef! When we got there the beef had been replaced by Pork (which we can't eat due to religious reasons). We were disappointed because the website hadn't been updated. We found out that the Pork was added to the menu at the beginning of Winterlicious as the Beef kept getting sent back to the kitchen by the customers. This only added to our disappointment because it meant that the restaurant negleted for months to update their website!
The manager was initially unwilling to accomodate us and was quite frankly very insulting. We spent approximately 20 minutes convincing him that Centro has a responsibility to correctly advertise their menu and due to this 'screw up' the customer should be accomodated. This is something should be expected from any restaurant especially one of this calibur.
We finally got him to offer us chicken (not beef) in place of the pork.
Needless to say, we won't be coming back!

Totally disagree with Martiniboys 2 star rating... Centro is one of the few restaurants in this city that consistantly rates 4 stars. Great food, Exceptional wine list and well mannered staff.
